Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To study the correlation between Macular GCC thickness measured by OCT and visual field sensitivity at the additional central test points in the 24-2C SITA Faster and 10-2 SITA Standard HVF in glaucoma suspects.Timepoint: Baseline

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.To assess the sensitivity and efficacy of GCC analysis by quantifying macular GCC thickness using OCT in glaucoma suspects. 2.To assess the visual field sensitivity at additional central 10degree test points using the 24-2C SITA Faster and 10-2 SITA Standard HVF in glaucoma suspects. 3.To study and determine the utility of Macular GCC analysis and central 10degree cluster points on 24-2C SITA Faster and 10-2 SITA Standard by analyzing the statistical correlation between them in glaucoma suspects.Timepoint: Baseline
